Is it against the law to post unsolicited porn as a reply on Twitter?

Like, for example, ESPN or some other company or famous person makes a tweet. And then someone responds in the comments with a picture of a big dong.

Is that against the law? I'm just curious because I have never seen something like that on Twitter. And with all of the trolls, you'd think you'd come across blatantly inappropriate images tweeted by trolls just to stir the pot.

Yet amazingly, I've never come across it. Obviously something like that could get your account shut down, but is it also illegal?

Depends. Was it Robert Lee's dong?

Only non-white, non cis-gender dongs are legal.

I believe that a dong is actually a vagina on twitter, so it's allowed. Removing it would fit the narrative and fall inline with their beliefs.... ;)

As long as it's not a minor I don't think it's illegal. Do it enough and they recipient could file for harassment, though.

Yeah but at the same time, there is a reasonable expectation that minors will come across your reply, thus exposing them to explicit material.

Hmm. That's a good point. Has this ever been brought to court?

There was some guy who sued a twitter poster for purposely posting seizure inducing gifs after the guy tweeted about his epilepsy

It's not a direct attempt to send that stuff to minors tho. If you open up that wormhole then you can do retry much sue the entire internet including this site

Would that matter?

If you take a piss in public and a minor happens to see you even if you didn't attempt to flash them, I'm pretty sure you can be charged with indecent exposure to a minor and it upgrades your charge to a felony.
